[Vorbis] [Fwd: Better ogg cutting tool]

[Daniel Schregenberger]

Hi List,

here's a forwarded message from Craig Duncan, who wrote a replacement
for vcut. As he is not on the list and I kinda participated in the
discussion about vcut, he sent the mail to me.
I'm sorry it took me so long to forward it, I was in vacation. :)

I've attached the source.
@Craig: How about putting up a small page with your program? I can put
it on my page if you don't want to do it yourself.

ie.: # gcc -o vex -lvorbis -logg vex.c

I've included a small Makefile.

As Craig is not on the list, please include him in responses/questions
or send them to me.
